I'm very frustrated. The last 18 (not an exaggeration) high level chests I've opened (sorrows furnace, grenths footprint, snake dance, desert, etc.) have been 10 wands, 5 staffs, and 3 offhand items. I'M A RANGER!!! ARRGGHHH!!! I haven't seen a gold bow from a drop or chest for months. Is there something I'm missing here? Is there something that makes chests give items for certain classes? What is going on here...this is WAY too many items in a row to be just a coincidence.

With my elementalist i get swords, sheilds, axes, etc...
As for my warrior, cesta and mostly necro stuff. From my experience (or bad luck) i rarely get drops or chest drops for the class i am playing... |

Same here - my three characyers are Ranger, Ele and Warrior yet 80% of what I get are cestas, truncheons, canes, chakrams and staffs - normally poor ones. I've had 2 bows - both with worthless bonuses liuke dam,age v hexed or while hexed.

From what I've seen and heard, certain areas give certain items.
I can testify that farming griffons seems to yield warrior items almost exclusively, with a ranger item dropping very rarely. Swords mostly, with the occasional axe or shield. And I'm farming with a W/Mo, so I'm actually getting items that are potentially useful for the class. I don't recall ever seeing a caster item drop from griffons. I haven't done it, but I've heard that farming hydras gives mostly caster items. Similarly, I've heard that farming other critters yields armor (runes), etc. |

I have never opened a gold bow from a chest. It doesn't seem to matter what class I play it is almost always a caster item or a rune. I do find that killing Gawls in whitmans is a good place to get gold bows though. I've gotten several from there...

Don't farm in the same area (go to other climate zones) the more your farm in the same region, the worse your drops gets. That may be why your not getting and gold drops.
